Hour 2 - MAHA vs. AI and Clay's Incredible Story

Clay Travis (0:00)

Welcome back in our number two, Clay and Buck. All right, so light them up, Linda said, she was feeling a little depressed. Light them up, usually, in pretty good spirits. He's thankful.

Remember, she didn't have a lot of confidence in Byron Donalds. He's now gonna be the governor for her for the next four years. My favorite light them up Linda stat, if you wonder why we call her light them up, she wanted everybody wasted, who was clinging to the boats in the in the ocean, also worked for a long time in strip clubs, got quite a trajectory of life there based on past calls. But she said she's feeling depressed. And so I want to share with you, and I think Buck is going to echo this, something that I am incredibly optimistic about, if we can just have most politicians get out of the way and allow technology to continue advance. And Buck, tell me if you sign off on this. I think over the next decade, we are going to see as much progress in health as we have seen over the last 50 years. And that might not even be doing it enough justice in terms of where we are headed. And I want to, you buy this idea roughly that we are going to see unbelievable movement in health care in terms of quality of life, individualized medicine. And let me give you an example. So, I am 47

And like a lot of people around my age, I have seen a couple of dads out there who otherwise appeared to be in good health just die.

Just drop dead instantly, heart attacks. Nobody had any clue that they were in danger at all. Worked out all the time, ate healthy, still have young kids, work in huge hours, no health conditions at all. One day they are there, they feel great. The next day they are dead. And if you are in your 40s, and you are listening to us right now, 50s as well, I guarantee you have friends or family, something like this has happened.

So I looked at this and I said, man, I really want to figure out my heart condition. I feel I want to go for full batteries. I want to figure out whatever the greatest tech is out there. And I want to get full scans of my heart. I want all of my arteries looked at. I want to see if there's clogging going on. So I did the research and I just have completed. They put the dye into your heart. They have all these 3D AI tech where they can examine exactly how all of the blood is moving in your heart. Thankfully, I am in good shape. So for the people out there that are hoping that I'm going to drop dead soon on the left, you're unfortunately, you're in for another rough 40 years or so, all right? But, Buck, I want to share this story because I was sitting with the doctor and I said, can you tell me a story about how this tech that is brand new, where you are mostly scanning men's hearts, right? Because men overwhelmingly have heart related issues. I think if I'm correct, Buck, over 600,000 people a year die of heart disease in the United States every year. Think about that. Over 600,000 people.

Buck Sexton (3:34)

Number one killer, right?

SPEAKER_3 (3:35)

Number one killer. Is it number one?

Buck Sexton (3:36)

Yeah.

Clay Travis (3:36)

Yes. And many of the people out there who die otherwise had no issue at the time, you know, your 40s, 50s, boom, Widowmaker heart attack. That's why they call it that. He said, let me tell you a story, Clay. This is my doctor. He said, I have a patient, came in and we did all the die check, everything else with you. His arteries were over 80 percent occluded at the single most dangerous place where you could possibly have an heart attack.

He was in perfect health if you looked at him. Had zero sign that he would have ever had a heart condition. He said, Clay, this guy would have dropped dead in the next year. Nobody would have seen it coming. 48 years old. Family, working hard, doing all the things that you would typically think, eats healthy, works out, goes to the gym.

Says, within a year he would have dropped dead. They got the scan of his heart and they were able, in the space of one year, with all of the treatments that can be applied now, specific and individualized medicine for heart related issues, they were able to non-surgically, just by treatment, remove 80% of his arterial blockage. He now has the arteries of a guy who is 10 years younger than him. Perfectly fine. He's probably now going to be able to live, Buck, potentially another 40 years. He would have been dead in a year.
